Agenda item #6 – Billing Owners versus Renters
Steve Cox would like to see all bills go to Shareholder owners only and not to renters. The owners are always responsible for payments. However in some situations with out of town owners that are difficult to contact and renters that have lived in town for a long time it is easier to work with the renter. We need to make sure we don’t cause extra work for billing clerks.
